At the 3rd Sustainable Textile Summit, organised by the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry, RSWM, the flagship company of the LNJ Bhilwara Group, launched its Sustainability Report, reflecting its commitment to eco-friendly practices in textile production.
A key highlight of RSWM’s sustainability initiatives is its contribution to addressing the global plastic waste crisis. By recycling around 1,830 million PET bottles annually, the company produces 51,850 metric tons of recycled polyester fiber, diverting plastic waste from landfills and creating sustainable textile products. Additionally, RSWM uses 8,818 metric tons of biofuel sourced from dry husks each year, reducing its dependence on fossil fuels and supporting circular economy principles.
RSWM has implemented Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems in its plants, enabling the complete reuse of water and saving approximately 2,336,792 kilolitres annually. The company also integrates renewable energy into its operations, generating 76.5 million kilowatt-hours of solar and wind energy annually, reducing its reliance on traditional power sources.
In its efforts to combat climate change, RSWM has adopted energy-efficient practices that reduce CO2 emissions by 800,000 metric tons annually. The company also incorporates 8,162 metric tons of recycled cotton into its production and is expanding its use of sustainable fibers such as organic cotton, linen, hemp, jute, and silk.
RSWM supports sustainable agriculture by using 72,357 kilograms of organic manure and fertilisers each year to enhance soil health, emphasises BM Sharma, Joint Managing Director.
